The costs involved are about $100.000 all in (permits, engineering, architects labor , materials ) - I’m thinking that would be a better long term Investment than another SFH . 

@Denise Evans I have a question ...If a person files Chapter 13 bankruptcy with primary (homestead) house involved ..later surrenders house to the bank...the bank is now setting up foreclosure sale at court house steps..does this person still have right of redemption?

There would be closing costs involved, so as @Ray Hage mentioned, a price reduction may suit you better.

Any and all advice as to how I can get more involved with this REI strategy is much appreciated.

Less police involved shootings too.

Neither involve any pitches or selling... just real estate minded individuals (investors of all levels - from want-to-be to seasoned professionals - realtors, service providers etc) that get together and discuss real estate investing.  

Networking with other investors and seeking advice from financial advisors can provide valuable insights and help you avoid common pitfalls.Keep an eye on your financial health by maintaining an emergency fund and avoiding over-leveraging.

Plus, if everything is hidden from public eye you get to skip out on the petty stupid lawsuits.

But there is a lot more risk and skill sets involved Developing. 

I’m educating myself, saving up money and keeping an eye on the market.
